Semua Bab My Billionaire Ex-husband's Greatest Regret : Bab 181 - Bab 190

Chapter 181Grayson Grant ~•~It had been a month since the accident happened. I had to pause everything work-related because the doctor advised me to rest for a while until I was fully recovered. It wasn’t easy to follow his instructions, but I was glad I did. I felt brand new and everything was back to normal. As I stood at the balcony of my office, my mind wandered back to the day of the accident. Even though I never admitted it out loud, I had a strong feeling that someone was behind the accident. But I just couldn’t tell who it was. I had a few suspects but it didn’t make sense for any of them to get access to any of my cars. Most times, I considered brushing off those thoughts because I didn’t want to spiral into paranoia.I’d already lost enough time, being confined to my bed and pretending like I wasn’t afraid of how close I’d come to losing everything. Still, the feeling wouldn’t go away. I gripped the railings, staring at the city that stretched out beneath me. Accide

Chapter 183Tessa Ford ~•~“No, you can’t go to the club opening,” Zane said through gritted teeth. He sounded so serious and I couldn’t hold back a scoff. I blinked, staring at him in shock. “What are you talking about? I wasn’t asking for your permission, Zane,” I replied sharply. Where did he get the idea that he could tell me where I could or couldn’t go? Even when I was married to Grayson, he wasn’t controlling. Why was Zane trying to make things weird between us? It was just a club opening, it wasn’t like I was going to a private place with Grayson. He paused and looked at me. “You weren’t asking for my permission?” He repeated as if he hadn’t heard me correctly. I nodded. “Yes, Zane. I was just informing you so that you would know about it,” I continued. “Just to be polite.” “Wow,” he muttered under his breath. “So you’d really go there if I say you shouldn’t go?” “Yes. It’s just a club opening. Stop making a big deal out of it.” I closed my computer and leaned my back

Chapter 185Grayson Grant ~•~I didn’t say anything to Zane. I knew there was no point in begging him. And I didn’t want him to feel like he had some sort of power over me. He sat there, staring at me in silence. I could tell he was surprised by my attitude; he probably expected a different reaction from me. After a while, he cleared his throat and continued. “You are really going to act like you aren’t bothered by what I just said?” He asked, his voice sharp. I folded my arms. “I’m just wondering what you came here to do,” I replied calmly. “I have a lot of things to do and I’ll be happy if you get straight to the point.” He fixed his narrowed gaze on me. “You already know what I came here for, but you don’t want to accept that you’ve been caught.” I let out a deep exhale, pinching the bridge of my nose. “Caught?” I asked with a bitter scoff. There was no way I was going to admit to him that I knew about anything or that I was even doing it. For all I know, he could be wearin

Chapter 187Tessa Ford~•~“Did you ever admit to Zane that I was actually laundering money through the company?” Grayson’s urgent voice came through the other end of the line. I shook my head. “No, I didn’t admit anything. He didn’t even really talk about it and he changed the topic when I tried to ask further questions,” I replied with a hint of worry in my voice. “Is anything the issue?” Grayson let out a deep exhale. “No, not really. I just wanted to make sure that you didn’t say anything and to tell you that you shouldn’t.”“Of course. I know how these things work. I wouldn’t say something like that.” “Okay… good.” The line was silent. Then I cleared my throat and asked. “Are you okay? Is everything okay?” I asked, my heart racing. He didn’t respond immediately. I could hear the faint breathing from the other end of the line. “Talk to me, Grayson,” I continued, my voice careful. “Did something happen?” “Vito is being difficult. I need Zane to back off. I just need a brea

Chapter 189Tessa Ford~•~“I thought I asked you not to come,” Grayson whispered but I could still hear him through the loud music. “Do you want to piss your boyfriend off? I don’t want him to —.” I didn’t let him finish. “You have nothing to worry about. He’s not going to say anything,” I assured Grayson. “We have a mutual understanding and it’s just a club opening.” Grayson’s eyes mirrored his relief. “Okay, but I’ll hold you to your words if things go south.” I responded with a light chuckle. “Don’t worry about anything. Just focus on having a successful night.” Grayson nodded. “Sure. I hope nothing goes wrong,” he replied. “I’d love to stay here and keep you company, but I have so many things to take care of.” I brushed off his concerns with a dismissive wave. “It’s fine, I’m meant to be staying away from you, right?” I laughed. “You can go.” It was a good thing I invited Nora.I wouldn’t feel alone. “I’ll see you later.” With that, Grayson dashed into the crowd.
